Alison Hillhouse, VP, Youth Culture and Trends at MTV

"Nora has been an amazing partner for MTV in video ethnography work with teens. Her video work is superb, and she’s very flexible - she has worked for us in non–traditional settings such as homes and party buses with teens. She “gets” youth and pop culture so knows what to look for and how to edit clips that convey the right insights."

Robin Hafitz, Founder and CEO of Open Mind Strategies

"Research video is the secret weapon of a successful presentation and that is why we turn to Nora again and again. She is more than just a great videographer. She's also a valued member of our team that brings an open mind and keen instinct to the table, helping us "crack the code" and go deep with consumers. I highly recommend her for those looking for both professionalism and artistry in research video."
